Lékué Baking Mat

The tiny holes allow hot air to circulate directly underneath your dough. This prevents moisture from getting trapped, which is the primary cause of soggy bottoms, and helps achieve a crisp, even crust on pastries and breads.

Yes, the platinum silicone surface is naturally non-stick. However, because of the perforations, it is best suited for doughs that hold their shape, like choux pastry, cookies, or bread, rather than very loose, liquid batters that might drip through.

The mat features printed guides specifically designed for shaping delicate items like éclairs and chouquettes. These templates help you pipe consistent sizes so your pastries bake uniformly.

The mat is oven-safe up to 428 degrees Fahrenheit. It is designed to withstand standard baking temperatures, but you should avoid exceeding this limit to maintain the integrity of the silicone.

It is dishwasher safe, but you can also easily hand wash it with warm, soapy water. Because of the perforations, ensure you rinse it thoroughly to remove any crumbs or residue trapped in the holes.

The mat measures 15.7 inches by 11.8 inches. It is designed to fit most standard half-sheet pans, but it is a good idea to measure your oven tray before purchasing to ensure a flat, even fit.
